Judge Stephen Dillard

In your charity, please pray for my mom. She’s been in and out of the hospital lately and is now in hospice care. I am not sure how much longer she’ll be with us, but I am going to treasure the time I have left with her.

I hope all of you have a wonderful and relaxing weekend. And as always, please be good to each other.

Today seems like an appropriate day to remember that one glorious time Taylor Swift made me look like a cool dad.

Thanks again, Taylor! I can’t wait to listen to your new album.

I hope all of you have a wonderful and relaxing weekend. And as always, please be good to each other.

Georgia Judge Stephen Dillard to receive William H. Rehnquist Award for Judicial Excellence Presiding Judge Stephen Louis A. Dillard of the Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia has been named the recipient of the 30th Annual William H. Rehnquist Award for Judicial Excellence presented by...

I am honored beyond words. www.ncsc.org/news/georgia...

Here are some additional photos from our offsite oral argument session in Valdosta.

Amidst all the bad news we hear let me share some good news. The Georgia Court of Appeals made the long trip down from Atlanta to Valdosta to hold oral arguments in our beautifully restored historic courthouse today. I would guess close to a 100 students came out in addition to many other citizens.

The Fourth Division of the Court of Appeals of Georgia had a wonderful time holding oral arguments in Valdosta today. The bench and bar of Valdosta and Valdosta State University were gracious hosts, and we throughly enjoyed meeting so many judges, lawyers, educators, students, and citizens.

Today was a good day.

I hope all of you have a wonderful and relaxing weekend. And as always, please be good to each other.

Rascal!

Today would have been my dad’s 88th birthday.

Dr. Jerry W. Dillard loved his family and friends, teaching students to work with special-needs children, Alabama Football, boating, yard work, music, PBR, and Bama Bino Pizza.

He is dearly missed.

Happy Constitution Day!

May we all strive and work together for a “more perfect union.”

This past Friday, I spoke with students from the GA HSMTC Law Academy. I truly believe this program is one of the best things we do as a bar. These students are bright, intellectually curious, & excited to learn about the legal profession & rule of law. They give me great hope for our future.

I realize these are trying times for our country, but my Friday refrain remains the same:

I hope all of you have a wonderful and relaxing weekend. And as always, please be good to each other.

It was my second week clerking for Judge Manion when I heard the first reports on the way to work. I will never forget that day.

Sending bat-signal to @judgedillard.bsky.social and @cpy87.bsky.social for this part.
